Simple Compressor class (C++)
Type : stereo, feed-forward, peak compressor
References : Posted by Citizen Chunk
Linked file : http://www.chunkware.com/opensource/SimpleComp.zip
Notes :
Everyone seems to want to make their own compressor plugin these days, but very few know where to start. After replying to so many questions on the KVR Dev Forum, I figured I might as well just post some ready-to-use C++ source code.
This is a C++ implementation of a simple, stereo, peak compressor. It uses a feed-forward topology, detecting the sidechain level pre-gain reduction. The sidechain detects the rectified peak level, with stereo linking to preserve imaging. The attack/release uses the EnvelopeDetector class (posted in the Analysis section).
Notes:
- Make sure to call initRuntime() before processing starts (i.e. call it in resume()).
- The process function takes a stereo input.
- VST params must be mapped to a practical range when setting compressor parameters. (i.e. don't try setAttack( 0.f ).)

This code works perfectly, and I have tried a number of sound and each worked correctly. The conversion is linear in logarithm domain.
The code has been written in such a professional style, can not believe it is FREE!!
Keep it up. Two super huge thumbs up.

there are some updates: mainly, there is now a SimpleGate class, which implements a simple gate. other than that, minor changes to the code -- but all public functions should work the same.

MIRROR: http://www.benvesco.com/dump/simpleSource.zip
This code has been missing for some time at the posted locations. I found someone with a copy and am now mirroring these files for download on my server. I believe the software license allows this mirroring. The code is unchanged and belongs to the original owner.
